Slovak university students‘ health in the context of trait emotional intelligence

Kaliská, Lada, 1976- Slovak university students‘ health in the context of trait emotional intelligence / Lada Kaliská. -- The study theoretically and empirically analyzes trait emotional intelligence (EI) potential in the context of health (health domains and attitude by WHO and BMI index) by self-report tools: trait EI (global level, factors: well-being, self-control, emotionality, sociability) by TEIQue-ASF (Petrides, 2009) and health domains (physical health, psychological health, social relations, environment) and general health attitude by WHOQOL-BREF (WHO, 1996) and BMI index of future teachers as potential educational leaders in Slovakia (N=107, Mage=22.3, /SD=2.9/; 83% of females). Statistically significant positive moderate to strong relations between trait EI (and its factors) and health domains and global health attitude were proved (up to 40% of global health is predicted by trait EI). While BMI was neither in relation with trait EI nor health. There were significant differences between overweight and healthy weight in health domains and attitude in favor to healthy weight ones. The study emphasizes the importance of socio-emotional learning of educational emotionally intelligent leaders. The study is a part of a research project “Psychological Approach to Creation, Implementation, and Verification of Educational Leader´s Competence Model Development (APVV-17-0557)”.
